Hi,

not sure whether I'm actually supposed to report that one, feel free to
ignore if this warning is supposed to be there.

2.6.27-rc6 as a Xen pvops domU on i386, both with CONFIG_SMP set and
without (and patch from http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11485
applied) report the following warning on startup.

Linux version 2.6.27-rc6-sendmsg-debug (bschmidt@svr01.teleport-iabg.de)
(gcc version 4.3.1 (Debian 4.3.1-9) ) #4 SMP Thu Sep 11 17:41:20 CEST
2008

BIOS-provided physical RAM map:

can't remember seeing that on 2.6.26 so it's probably a regression, but
it doesn't seem to have any ill-effects. Full dmesg and config attached.

Regards,
Bernhard
